Content warning: This post includes discussion about sexual assault.
Two weeks after the Senate pardoned President Bill Clinton at his impeachment trial in 1999, Juanita Broaddrick appeared on NBCs Dateline with new bombshell allegations. In his interview, Broaddrick accused Clinton of raping him during his 1978 campaign for governor of Arkansas while he was serving as the state’s attorney general. (Clintons attorney David E. Kendall called the Broaddricks allegations completely untrue in a statement at the time, and the former President never admitted any wrongdoing.) FXs Impeachment: The American Crime Story retells the story of the Broaddricks.
Broaddrick told Dateline that he met Clinton during a campaign stoppage at a nursing home he ran at the time. Broaddrick recalls telling Clinton that he had recently begun volunteering at his campaign office in his hometown of Van Buren, Arkansas, and he invited him to call his office if he was in Little Rock. A few weeks later, Broaddrick was in town for a business seminar and took him on the offer. He initially agreed to meet Clinton at his coffee shops at the hotel, but he said he called at the last minute and asked to meet in his room to avoid reporters camping in the lobby.
Broaddrick told Dateline that within minutes of entering the room, Clinton started kissing him. I pushed him away first. I just told him no … He tried to kiss me again, he claimed, every Washington Post. He started biting my lip … And then he forced me down on the bed. I was just so scared. I tried to stay away from him … He would not listen to me. Broaddrick claimed that despite his objections, Clinton rushed at him, leaving his lip left and swollen.
The last thing he told me was, You’ll get more ice for that, Broaddrick failed NBC’s week -long delays in airing his story for what the network cited as intent to check the truth on a competing interview with the Washington Post in 1999. And he put on his sunglasses and walked out the door. (He also detailed the alleged sexual assault in The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times as he awaited the NBCs broadcast.)
Broaddrick said that at first she didn’t move forward because she was afraid no one would believe her, but Paula Jones 1994 sexual harassment lawsuit against Clinton eventually pushed her to share her story. When Jones’ attorneys first approached him, Broaddrick identified as Jane Doe No. 5 refused to cooperate. After he received a subpoena, he signed an affidavit in 1998 denying that Clinton attacked him, which has been reported since the early 1990s.
During the President’s campaign in 1992 there were baseless rumors and stories that spread that Mr. Clinton had made unwanted sexual advances on me in the late 70s, Broaddrick wrote. I have repeatedly denied the allegations and asked to respect my family’s privacy. These allegations are not true and I hope they will not harass me, or cause further disruption to my family. … I do not offer any information regarding an unusual or unwanted sexual advancement by Mr. Clinton.
Broaddrick later changed his sworn testimony again and claimed that Hillary Clinton tried to thank him for his silence at an early 90s political rally. The FBI investigated Broaddricks’ claims in Kenneth Starr’s investigation into Clinton, but eventually found the evidence inconclusive. In an interview with 2016 BuzzFeed, Broaddrick expressed his desire to make the public believe his accusations. People who say they apologize are very polite, he said. But when someone says, I believe you, that’s probably best for me, because I want to believe. This is a difficult thing to move forward and talk about. And for someone to choose to make me validthats nice.
Broaddrick doubled down on his allegations against Clinton on Twitter in January 2016, writing, I was 35 years old when Bill Clinton, Ark. The Attorney General raped me and Hillary tried to silence me. I’m 73 now …. it’s not missing.
That was but a small part of the campaign he launched against Hillary Clinton in the former First Ladys 2016 presidential bid. Hours before the debate in October 2016, Broaddrick appeared alongside Donald Trump as well as Kathleen Willey, Kathy Shelton, and Jones have all been accused of Clintons misconduct in recent years at a live press conference on Facebook. During the event, Broaddrick attempted to draw a distinction between the allegations against Trump and those made against Mr. Clinton. Bill Clinton raped me, and Hillary Clinton threatened me, he said. I think there is no comparison.
In 2018, Broaddrick released a book, You Better Put Ice On That: How I Survived Bill Clinton’s Rape, with former investigator journalist Nick Lulli. According to the summary, he told her the story from the attack at the hands of the future president, to the masked threats of a seemingly complex presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Now that the former registered nurse has retired to a mansion on a 23-acre Arkansas ranch near the Oklahoma border, Twitter seems to be his preferred mode of speaking out against the Clintons, as well as President Joe Biden and his current administration. . His Twitter bio echoes the false claim that Trump won the 2020 election, and he recently tweeted about his opposition to critical race theory and vaccine mandates, calling Dr. Anthony Fauci who is a disgusting little villain to be imprisoned for crimes against humanity. He also posted racist tweets about Vice President Kamala Harris and told that anyone who recently vandalized a statue of George Floyd in New York City should be given a medal.
Broaddrick also tweeted about Impeachment, promising to share more information in the future. The true American Crime Story of Impeachment was hidden and concealed during Bill Clinton’s Impeachment, Broaddrick tweeted on October 2. Jane Doe # 5 has no agreement on Bill & Monica’s consent. This When Bill Raped Juanita. Stay focused. Many more to come. # IAmJaneDoeNo5.
